Im a total newbie to kitesurfing. Im looking to buy a new kite and its very difficult to cut through all the marketing hype and decide which kite is best!!

So far I have singled out these three; Bandit , Cabrinha SB3 and Naish Cult. I would really like to hear wat everybody (who has used these kites before) thinks about them.

Thanks Heaps for the help!

There all amazing kites. So id then be looking at price difference, safety features, bar set up. All that stuff that will make your ride easier..

The SB3 is definalty most common. Heaps of people have them

if they are all good, pick the one with no pulleys on the kite, less maintenance.

man they are all very good kites, but for learning on and all-round performance i'd probably go the switchblade.

the bandit and cult are better wave kites, but the SB is more of an all-rounder

whichever one you buy, you will be able to progress easily with it until you know what you want to do (surf waves, freestyle, flat water etc)
